Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Deuteronomy 29:20

Ver. 20. His jealousy shall smoke against that man— i.e. He shall be visited with the several plagues which are the effects of the divine severity. None will be punished more exemplarily than those who abuse the goodness of God, and turn his grace into lasciviousness. Romans 2:4. The punishment of the fallen angels, the bringing-in of the general flood, the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, are examples of this kind, written for our admonition; on which account, excellent is the advice of the son of Sirach, Say not I have sinned, and what harm has happened to me; for though the Lord is long-suffering, he will in no wise let thee go, &c. Sir 5:4.
